How to Prepare for the HPU B.Tech Entrance Exam 2027
- Finish the NCERT class 11 and 12 Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics books first; the syllabus follows the same topics.
- Give Mathematics extra time: it has the most questions and decides ties.
- Practise objective questions under time limits, and skip guesses you are unsure of, since each wrong answer costs half a mark.
- Solve the official UIT sample questions to see the style of questions.
Useful books for PCM practice:
- NCERT Class 12 PCM Textbooks (Set of 8 Books): the base for all three subjects.
- Arihant Objective Physics: MCQ practice for Physics.
- Arihant Objective Chemistry: MCQ practice for Chemistry.
- Arihant Objective Mathematics: MCQ practice for Mathematics.

HPU B.Tech Syllabus 2027 FAQs
Does HPU release a new B.Tech syllabus every year?
The syllabus is printed in the UIT prospectus for each year. The latest prospectus online is the 2022 one; check the 2027 prospectus for any change when it comes out.
Which subject has the most questions in the HPU B.Tech test?
Mathematics, with 34 of the 100 questions (68 marks). Physics and Chemistry have 33 questions (66 marks) each.
Is the HPU B.Tech syllabus the same as JEE Main?
It covers similar class 11 and 12 PCM topics, but HPU sets its own topic list in the UIT prospectus. Follow the HPU list when you plan your study.
Is there negative marking in the HPU B.Tech entrance test?
Yes. Under the latest published pattern, 0.5 mark is deducted for each wrong answer, and unattempted questions get no marks.
